The man growled in joy, “I’m really glad . Really, really glad to see you back alive . ” Wen He’s eyes felt sore as tears knotted her nose, “R-really?”
It was a beautiful confession yet it was done out of guilt .
Wen He felt his lips rubbing against her passionately . She breathed in every bit of his scent, listened to his every growl as she felt the moisture over his lips . It was probably the last time she would ever get to feel his lips and his attention in her life . She leaned against him, watching the stars falling at the balcony as she was drowned in the silence . She soon fell asleep . She was not sure if she was completely drained from the mind battle she had for the past few weeks or Huo Chen’s embrace really gave her a sense of security .
She was asleep . Soundly asleep . Huo Chen carefully lifted her like his own princess as he gently placed her over the bed on which he slept too .
“Wen He…” His lips parted slowly, watching the beauty in her sweet slumber .
“Thank you…” He whispered, landing a soft kiss over her forehead .
Thank you for always staying by my side when I need somebody .
Maybe I’ll never forget about Yang Yang . Maybe we would both end up as a pitiful sweet nothing . But it’s not so bad to spend the rest of my life with Wen He like this .
No, it’s brilliant* to spend the rest of my life with her like this .
“Good night . ” He retreated his arm and repositioned Wen He, spooning her, taking a deep breath of the scent in her hair . The smell of shampoo, the smell of her body—they were so soothing that Huo Chen closed his eyes . He slept deeply wondering if it was the traumatic experience of seeing his mother dead that worn him out so much .
The next morning, when the sound of men marching in the field woke him up, Wen He was no longer there . It was noon, the sun was blazing as Huo Chen rolled off his bed, only to spot a note on the desk . His serenity vanished when he took a look at the writing .
[Breakfast is in the tumbler . I have left and I’ll never come again . Update me on the divorce date . ]
He ripped the notes into countless pieces .
Why must you always do something against me whenever I have made up my mind on something? I chose to keep you and you chose to leave .
Is fate this capricious?
Are we supposed to go sideways?
No! I am going to ask her!
The phone rang all of a sudden .
“Sir,” it was Song Shou, “The commander requested your presence at the base . ”
“Alright, be there . ”
Wen He decided to leave having seen Huo Chen returning to his old self as she started her life as a free-to-take-leave dancer inside the apartment .
Gu Jinzhi rushed in, throwing the door open and sat on the sofa as if his own house . His legs crossed as the man glanced upon her, “Yes? Did you have a change of mind again? What nice stuff happened, eh?”
“Go away . ”
Is it me or this man somehow sees through my everything? Geez! If mind-reading is a form of sexual harassment, he’s committing an assault!
“Gu Jinzhi, I’ve decided to leave Country Z . ”
“Oh? Where to?”
“Anywhere will do,” Wen He muttered, “I just intend to never come back again . ”
Divorce or not, it doesn’t affect me in one bit .
“When?”
“I dunno, maybe the next few days?” Wen He pinched her forehead while acting calm, “If you don’t cut the ties in time, you are meant to be entangled in trouble . ”
I had enough of me being not myself . How can I be so indecisive? I’m Wen He, a trained killer, the beautiful agent . I’m not gonna let this happen again . I’ll leave and restart .
“If that suits you,” approved Gu Jinzhi with a certain kind of stare upon her .
It felt like admiration yet with a hint of sympathy . In his eyes, Wen He was the kind of strong woman who would not give up on her own standards no matter what .
“I’ll see you off when that happens,” smiled Gu Jinzhi .
